Chapter 593 So What
"Are you nuts?”
Ye Fan stood along the road and looked at this shily dressed woman as if she was an idiot. He felt
that she was really aughable character.
These people seemed to regard Fan Zhong-Xian as their father and his words as thew.
But Ye Fan was above that.
So he couldn''t be bothered with whatever they said.
Ye Fan turned to head home.
"You little punk! Did you think that Xian will let you off just because you avoid him? Just you wait! One
of these days, you''ll go over obediently to kneel in front of Xian and lick his shoes!" came Xia Yue''s
disdainfulughter.
"Situ Feng, I thought this Ye Fan was some big shot since he''s got the backing of the Shen family. But it
seems like he''s just a weak fellow after all. He doesn''t even have the guts to face Xian. He''s really just
trash who isn''t even as good as one fingernail on Xian."
Theughter behind him slowly faded, but Ye Fan behaved like he hadn''t heard anything.
They were just a bunch of clowns, so Ye Fan wasn''t bothered by their words.
Ye Fan pushed the door to the house open to find that the living room lights were still on.
Qiu Mu-Cheng was on the sofa and seemed to be waiting for Ye Fan.
Su Qian was also around.
When Ye Fan walked through the door, Su Qian scoffed coldly, turned her face away and ignored him.
The atmosphere in the house seemed a little heavy.
"Mu-Cheng, what''s wrong? Who made you angry?" asked Ye Xiao with augh in hope of making the
atmosphere more rxed.
Qiu Mu-Cheng didn''t reply that question. She looked at Ye Fan and her tone of voice was warm, "Ye
Fan, do you know why I was punished by Grandpa to marry you back then?"
Ye Fan was stunned for a while. He didn''t know why Qiu Mu-Cheng was bringing this up now.
"At that time, the young master of a well-to-do family tried to molest me, so I used my high heels to kick
his lower half and he ended up in hospital. At that time, I felt vindicated and felt that he deserved what
he got. But in the end? My grandfather and uncles dragged me to the hospital to apologize. Grandpa
wanted me to kneel before that young master to apologize but I refused. I felt that I wasn''t in the wrong
and he was the one in the wrong, so why should I be the one apologizing?"
"That day in the hospital, Grandpa pped me and I ran out crying. Later I found out that Grandpa had
knelt on my behalf in exchange for the other party''s forgiveness.
From then on, I knew that there is no right and wrong in this world, only strong and weak. Compared to
those people, the Qiu family was too small and I was nothing but dust. It only took one word from them
to destroy everything the Qiu family had, so there was nothing else we could do besides bow to them."
The moon was cold as ice outside the window.
Qiu Mu-Cheng''s low and warm voice resounded gently in the room like a cool breeze.
There was also a faint smile on her lips as she spoke.
This smile seemed self-deprecating and helpless at the same time.
Ye Fan didn''t say anything and let Qiu Mu-Cheng continue.
"So Ye Fan, go with me to the Li house to apologize tonight. I''ve already prepared everything," said Qiu
Mu-Cheng as she got up, picked up the gifts meant for the Li family and wanted to pull Ye Fan out of
the house with her.
But to her surprise, Ye Fan continued standing where he was and didn''t look like he was going
anywhere.
Qiu Mu-Cheng frowned and looked in puzzlement at Ye Fan.
Ye Fan quietly replied, "Mu-Cheng, I''m not going to apologize and there''s no need to. I wasn''t the one
in the wrong and they were the ones who offended me first, so why should I go? On top of that, even if
I were wrong, the Li family wouldn''t dare to ept an apology from me."
"Enough!” Qiu Mu-Cheng suddenly shouted angrily to cut off Ye Fan''s words.
"Ye Fan, what''s the point of saying all these boastful and empty words? I''ve said so much already,
didn''t any of it get to you? Sure, you''re amazing and you can beat up ten or even twenty men all by
yourself. But what about a powerful group of people? Or a rich family?"
"Do you know how powerful the Li family is in Yunzhou? Even the head of the Shen family, Shen Jiu-Yi,
is just one of Master Li Er''s subordinates. As for the Shen Fei whom you always rely on, he''s probably
not allowed anywhere near Li Er! If he wants to, Li Er canmand a hundred or maybe even a
thousand people to do his bidding! He even has power in the government!"
"Remember Han Wen-Xue, the woman we met at Jinding Mall during the Midautumn Festival? Her
husband had assets worth more than $100 million but hispany became bankrupt overnight and he
went to jail! The person who did this to them was the Li family. Even a millionaire has no power against
him, so what''s a poor man born in the vige like you going to use against the Li family? What do you
mean by saying the Li family wouldn''t dare to ept an apology from you?!" Qiu Mu-Cheng shouted
angrily at Ye Fan as her eyes turned red.
She was really furious now.
Su Qian told Qiu Mu-Cheng earlier that Ye Fan had offended someone from the Li family and Qiu Mu-
Cheng immediately paled.
But she knew that Ye Fan was someone with great pride, so she didn''tsh out at him and tried to use
logic and reason to persuade him first.
But what frustrated Qiu Mu-Cheng was that Ye Fan didn''t care for anything she said and even started
saying such boastful words like an idiot.
Of course Qiu Mu-Cheng was angry.
But Ye Fanughed at Qiu Mu-Cheng''s torrential anger.
Thatugh was self-deprecating and sounded sarcastic.
"Born in the vige? Poor fellow?" Ye Fan shook his head and his eyes were filled with self-
deprecation.
"Mu-Cheng, many people haveughed at me for being of lowly birth and of a poor background, and

they look down on me.
But I don''t care. Because to me, all of them are no more than ants and there''s no need to stoop to
these clowns'' level. But I didn''t expect that you look at me this way too," said Ye Fan as he continued to
"If not? Did I say something wrong? Ye Fan, why can''t you look at yourself squarely in the eye? Why
are you always living in your own imagination?" shouted Qiu Mu-Cheng.
"I know you have a lot of pride, but the Li family is really not one you can afford to offend! Do you know
how powerful the Li family is in Yunzhou or not? The head of the Li family has been the leader of this
city for at least ten years now, has connections on both sides of thew and has control over the city!"
"And so what?" Ye Fan suddenly roared angrily. His voice was as loud as thunder.
Su Qian and Qiu Mu-Cheng were so shocked by this outburst that they both froze where they are.
"The Li family has immense power and influence and can control this ce, but can they fight one fist
of mine? Power is in my hands, so never mind Yunzhou - even if you''re talking about all of Jiangdong,
and even the capital, Yanjing, I, Ye Fan, will be able to destroy them with one punch and keep them
under my feet!"
His words were firm and confident, like gold and rocks nging to the floor.
